ABOUT THE SUMMIT

The Social Good Summit examines the impact of technology and new media on social good initiatives around the world. Held annually during United Nations General Assembly Week, the Social Good Summit unites a dynamic community of global citizens, progressive thought leaders, and grassroots activists (around a common theme: #2030NOW) to discuss solutions for the greatest challenges of our time. A dynamic exploration of the world we want to live in by 2030, the Social Good Summit will focus on how we can unlock technology’s potential to make the world a better place.

LAGOS SOCIAL GOOD SUMMIT

The Lagos summit is an extension of the global summit. We seek to contribute to the economic development growth of Nigeria by helping change makers, community leaders, and business leaders bridge the gap between leadership and technology. We create forward thinking conversations on how to leverage social media and (new) technologies to solve Nigeria’s biggest problems, and ultimately create a desirable future for Africa.
